One of the great advantages of silver goblets is that you can go on dropping them and in 50 years still have a set intact.
Christopher Lawrence is the only silversmith to have been awarded the title 'Craftsman of the Year': he has received this honour three times. He brings a feeling for modern design to a craft rooted in medieval techniques.
Because of silver's great intrinsic value, his work is sought after both for its investment value and its artistic interest.
